Overview of 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL For Sale by Owner

Styled by the legendary Bruno Sacco, the W126 era of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class is a truly timeless classic car to own. It was made between 1979 and 1991 in sedan form, and could be had with the German automaker’s silky smooth 5.6-liter V8 under the hood too. Obviously, the car was a huge hit in North America, where it redefined luxury motoring and set templates that are still being followed to this date. If you’re a W126 fan, we have a 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL for sale right now, with that V8 engine to enjoy. Coming to you from Willard, Missouri with a mere 96,728 miles to its name, this car is a great way to experience signature Mercedes-Benz luxury from the pre-digital era.

Exterior and Interior

This W126 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL comes in black, which really showcases Sacco’s design genius. It’s a beauty to behold as it glides by on its silver alloy wheels in classic Mercedes-Benz style, with the low rumble of the V8 gently emanating from its twin tailpipes at the rear. This generation of Mercedes-Benz is also well-known for its headlamp wipers which are clearly visible on this car’s front end, ready to keep its powerful headlamps clean at all times. The inner lights of the headlamp clusters are fog lamps, directly flanking the iconic silver grille with Mercedes-Benz emblem perfectly centered atop it. This is what opulence looked like in the Eighties. The spacious passenger cabin of this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL comes with gray leather seating for up to five adults. Thanks to the car’s long wheelbase configuration, rear seat occupants enjoy impressive legroom and overall space. There’s some walnut wood interior trim, air conditioning with automatic climate control, power windows, power door locks and power mirrors. The front seats are power adjustable, and purists will love the original Becker radio unit with cassette tape player proudly located in the center console.

Engine

This 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL uses a 5.6-liter naturally aspirated V8 to move. The engine’s got a factory rated 238hp and 287lb-ft to give. Power goes to the rear wheels via a 4G-TRONIC 4-speed automatic gearbox. Power steering and power-assisted disc brakes are also standard features.

$17,500

The 1973 Mercedes-Benz 350 SL comes from the early years of the R107 generation, a period when Mercedes-Benz was still establishing the naming conventions that would define the model in the U.S. market. Showing approximately 106,842 miles, this example is finished in red over a Parchment interior and features both a removable hardtop and convertible soft top. One of the more interesting details is the 350 SL badging paired with the 4.5L V8 specification. Early U.S.-market R107s were sold with 350 SL badging despite using the larger 4.5L V8, before Mercedes-Benz transitioned the U.S. designation to 450 SL. That makes the badging part of the car’s period character rather than simply a mismatch.

Dark Red Metallic paint, a Saddle convertible top and matching Saddle leather cabin give it a quintessential period color combination, while a rear luggage rack adds another classic grand-touring touch.
